I think I avoided this because I wasn't sure if it took into account  
any kind of query string length limit.  But I'll check the code and  
give it a try.

Cool.  I guess there's a lot of handy memory-handling code in libapr  
that would have to be replaced in order to have a completely  
standalone module.
